Beschreibung

Happy Days

With the sound of a piercing bell Winnie wakes and exclaims, "Another heavenly day." Even though she is buried up to her waist, Winnie--ever the optimist-- goes about her day without the recollection that something is amiss. She brushes her teeth, puts on lipstick, reminisces about the past, and makes references to great works of literature that she has read but can no longer remember the lines that inspired her. Her source of comfort and inspiration, and all her "happy days" are the items in her seemingly bottomless bag, her thoughts, and the knowledge of her companion's presence. Although "Happy Days" is one of Beckett's most whimsical works, it is a relentless search for the meaning of existence, the tenuous relationships that bind one person to another, and the past to the present. von Beckett, Samuel

Über den Autor

Beckett, Samuel

Samuel Beckett (1906-1989), one of the leading literary and dramatic figures of the twentieth century, was born in Foxrock, Ireland and attended Trinity University in Dublin. In 1928, he visited Paris for the first time and fell in with a number of avant-garde writers and artists, including James Joyce. In 1937, he settled in Paris permanently. Beckett wrote in both English and French, though his best-known works are mostly in the latter language. A prolific writer of novels, short stories, and poetry, he is remembered principally for his works for the theater, which belong to the tradition of the Theater of the Absurd and are characterized by their minimalist approach, stripping drama to its barest elements. In 1969, Beckett was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature and commended for having "transformed the destitution of man into his exaltation." Beckett died in Paris in 1989.At the age of seventy-six he said: "With diminished concentration, loss of memory, obscured intelligence... the more chance there is for saying something closest to what one really is. Even though everything seems inexpressible, there remains the need to express. A child need to make a sand castle even though it makes no sense. In old age, with only a few grains of sand, one has the greatest possibility." (from Playwrights at Work, ed. by George Plimpton, 2000)
